Preop class? I have a preop appointment with my surgeon, but no class. Do you know what you'll be doing in it?

Thank.

Part of the day is with the nutirtionist, part with the surgeon. I'll meet the anesthesiology doc. I have to take a quiz on his small handbood and I'll preregister with the hospital. I'll also weigh in :sad:. Still working on that. I'm sooooooooooooooo hungry all of the time!!! I know it sounds like a lot but I'm glad he is thorough!

I am finally banded...My surgery was this morning and I am feeling fine...On Pain Meds, but not really having too much pain. I have been up and moving around to reduce the risk of bloodclots. Looking forward to starting my new life:thumbup:

Hi everyone! I was banded on 12/1. I spent the night in the hospital, even though I had litearlly 0 pain. I had no gas pain or pain around my incisions.

The biggest thing for me was how nauseous I felt afterwards and then having to sleep at a 45 degree angle.

I was discharged from the hospital this morning and am back home, and I will admit that I'm having a bit of pain now, so I'm going to take some pain meds and take my (already 6 pounds lighter) booty back to bed. lol

Anyway, just wanted to check in and wish the rest of the December Delights an easy surgery and a quick recovery! :sad:

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
